Banking on another level

5
Since they say I opened an account (initially just for the zero fee spending abroad) I was impressed. I then had a week using it in New York, the instant updates and account balance was brilliant. When I got back, I switched my current account as I was sick of the annoying calculator style security keypad. Never once regretted my switch and all the new features have left me raving about Starling to friends and family! My favourite updates so far are: Goals, effortless joint account setup and round-up saving! Excellent app, excellent banking experience and excellent customer service! Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Nice and Simple. There app is straight forward. Joining them took minutes and was updated throughout the process. Take a picture, submit a video and here is your sort code and account number. Card delivered a few days later and what a lovely card it is. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

The account works with no hitches, it is very useful to have one's spending tracked in detail and the offer on using the account overseas is unmatched anywhere else. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018
